We are grateful to New Lift Thrift Store for many reasons! Early this month, it was because our students were able to visit as an extension of their math learning. Sixth-grade students are using their understanding of percentages and proportions to find the savings realized by shopping at New Life Thrift Store. They compared the prices of used clothes to those of new ones. They talked about the importance of reusing. And they also volunteered at the store as members of the community! #bccs #bccsmiddleschoool
Our youngest learners have been learning about signs in preschool, and they visited downtown Byron Center to find more. They found a really cool cow, noticed symbols on trash cans of our neighbors, talked to workers at Byron Meats, and met other business owners! #bccs #bccspreschool

Teachers are learners! Our staff has enjoyed two days at CEA, diving into new ideas, sharing best practices, spending time together, and worshiping in community! #bccs
When preschool students are learning about buildings, what better way to discover more than by hiking through our community to find…buildings! Learners discovered the various building styles, looked at sizes of bricks, found unique features of churches, and even noticed the roof lines! #bccs #bccspreschool
Cross country had a great season, combining with the other SCHS feeder schools for great running and fun! #bccs #bccsmiddleschool
Throughout the year in second grade, teachers design learning so students are able to connect content to shining for God’s glory! #bccs #bccssecondgrade
Students sharing their stories in fourth grade! #bccs #bccsfourthgrade
We are looking forward to the first parent event this year! #bccs
One of the units our preschool students explore is about signs. While there are many short-term outcomes, such as recognizing letters or finding signs in the community, their learning goes beyond that! To connect their study to real people and real work, students created their own sign for Talons Out Mission 27, helping to welcome veterans home from their Honor Flight.
Learning how signs communicate messages is important, but even more so, we want our preschoolers to practice showing appreciation and welcome to others! #bccs #bccspreschool
It's always a good day when your learning includes making (and eating) applesauce! #bccs #bccskindergarten
